My Project

My students are always looking for the next thing to challenge their thinking! I love to see when they are involved in critical thinking and working together for a solution! BreakOut Edu and Ozo Bots both involve critical thinking, while incorporating engineering and technology. The earlier we can spark this excitement and promote perseverance through challenges and overcoming obstacles, the more successful they will become! Developing an excitement for coding with robots and developing critical thinking skills while solving academic tasks will create independent thinkers. Working collaboratively, the students will also learn valuable communication skills and prepare for existing in the workforce. Please consider donating - the students will benefit greatly from it!
